Topanga, CA
Sophie helped us buy our dream home. It wasn't an easy transaction, we were outbid a few times, but her local knowledge, persistence, and professional rapport in the end secured the home for us. What I really appreciate about Sophie is she is transparent and direct. She tells you what she knows without conjecture. She is also very responsive, answering our questions immediately and effectively. We were really happy to work with her and continue to recommend her to others.
Let me start by saying that was not your average deal. This was a complex transaction involving unpermitted additions that spanned over 3 months. Despite the complexity, Sophie always believed in the deal and showed composure and firmness in decisions and interactions with the counterparty. I am thrilled with the experience and cant recommend her enough!
After chatting with a few different realtors in the Topanga area, it became clear to us that Sophie would be a great fit: she knows the area inside out (born and raised in the canyon), has strong relationships, and understood our goals. What we didn't know when we started working with Sophie was how patient and persistent she would be. After well over a year, countless open houses, and several rejected offers, everything finally lined up, and we closed on our home in July 2022. We're grateful that Sophie stuck with us through a long process, never rushed us, and was able to ultimately find exactly what we were looking for (at a good price!). We would definitely recommend her to any prospective buyers in the canyon.
Sophie was an absolute joy to work with during a process that can be daunting and stressful. She's very personable while professional and could not have been more knowledgeable about the market in Topanga or the area itself. She priced my house perfectly and it received multiple offers within days, selling above asking price. I can't recommend Sophie highly enough.
Sophie is an incredible agent and I cannot recommendA her enough. My wife and I sold our Topanga home of 14 years and it was a very bittersweet, emotional time and Sophie was there for us every step of the way. She is a lifelong local and knows the intricaciesA of Topanga home and was able to navigate the escrow with ease and educate any potential buyers of the uniqueness of the homes in the canyon. She got us 6 offers within a week of being on the market and we closed in 3 weeks, well over asking with a free leaseback and no requests for repairs or credits. We couldn't believeA how easy the whole process was and how quickly it went by. Sophie was a pleasure to work with and we're so grateful to have had her on our side. Thank you Sophie!!
Working with Sophie was an absolute pleasure from the first time I spoke with her to the closing of escrow and the recording. She is very comfortable with her knowledge base in real estate and with managing the sale of a home. She is articulate, very thorough, and clear in communicating about the process. I knew nothing about selling a home and she was happy to explain everything in detail and to discuss all of her suggestions and ideas. She has a wonderful personality and energy and has great enthusiasm for her work. She did an amazing job. She is lovely to be around, and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole process.
Working with Sophie with great! She was always responsive and answered all of our questions. She also had incredible knowledge of the Topanga Canyon area.
Sophie was amazing. Knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful in explaining the process to us first-time home buyers in a simple way. Always quick to get back to us and forever with a positive outlook. Would definitely recommend without reservations.
Sophie was an ideal realtor to work with. She grew up in Topanga and worked with me over the course of two summers before we closed on my property. Her knowledge of the area and the relationships she had within the community were invaluable. Sophie has also acted as my agent to rent the main house on the property and after renovations on the guest house, using a contractor she introduced me to, I will happily use her to help rent that as well. She is knowledgeable, communicative and accountable. She has kept in touch and helped me out with numerous situations even after her work with me was technically over. I plan to continue to work with Sophie as my realtor in SoCal and I couldnt recommend her more highly!
Sophie come highly recommended because she gets results, and has an unequaled knowledge of her area. She staged the home so well it was featured in Curbed LA, and guided us through the selling process like a true professional.
Sophie helped to sell our Topanga home and she was also our agent in purchasing a new home in Topanga. She was incredibly knowledgable, professional and made the transition from one home to another very enjoyable. She's a kind and honest person, and we trusted her every step of the way.

My girlfriend and I just closed on our first home and we such an incredible experience with Sophie as our agent. Like most home purchases it was a wild ride and Sophie held our hand throughout the entire process. Our experience was quite unique compared to most. We weren't even shopping and did not have an agent. Then we stumbled upon our dream home in Topanga Canyon. Sophie came recommended to us by some good friends who had just worked with her to close on their home in Topanga and she delivered for us big time. He local knowledge is unmatched and her connections run deep. The competition was fierce for our property and we were not even the highest offer; however, between Sophie's insider knowledge and her deep connections in the community, we somehow pulled it off and had our offer accepted. It was hardly a 6-week process from the first open house until we closed and moved in. It was absolutely insane, but Sophie made it happen for us and we cannot recommend her enough. If you're looking to buy in Topanga you need to talk to Sophie!
Born and raised in Topanga, Sophie is exceedingly knowledgeable about the area. Both of the nuances plus the general vibe. But what truly sets Sophie apart and above the rest is her character and personality: passionate, enthusiastic, caring and full of integrity. She really made my housing search pleasant and smooth. Just a phenomenal experience start to finish. I would highly recommend. Bob
Sophie is an incredible real estate agent and a wonderful person. My wife and I first met Sophie because we contacted her about a rental, and though it was already taken, she emailed us a few months later when a comparable rental became available. As a result of Sophie following up with us, we ended up moving to Topanga from Venice. Six months after moving to Topanga, we started looking at houses to buy. Sophie was the perfect agent in every sense aEUR" she had an intuitive sense of what we would want to see, and contacted us immediately when anything in the ballpark went on the market. Her speed and tenacity meant we always had a leg up when making an offer. Though she was always on top of everything, she never pressured us, and she was incredibly patient through a home-shopping and home-buying process that lasted for more than a year and a half. She is a tireless ally and genuinely invested in her clients happiness. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

We were very lucky to have Sophie as our real estate agent. She knows Topanga and nearby communities quite well. She took the time to understand the type of house we wanted to find. And she was always very responsive and flexible. I would definitely recommend her! Thanks Sophie for helping us find the right house!
Sophie is such a sweetheart and was so amazing to work with! She helped me find my dream place! I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an agent.
Sophie is the best Real estate Agent ever!! She is extremely knowledgeable, and if she doesn't know an answer she will find it! She is also very kind and compassionate with the process of buying a home. We were very pleased with our buying experience!
Sophie gathered housing information from varying markets and represented our house perfectly to attract a buyer from outside our local Westlake Village area. She created a niche market based on the unique attributes of our house style and price point that immediately attracted buyers from outside the area. We had multiple strong offers within one week of an open house. Sophie is creative, attentive, knowledgeable and its a bonus that she has unbelievable energy.
Sophie is an incredibly dedicated and knowledgeable realtor. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again. Extremely responsive and not afraid to dig in and help you when things seem pretty crazy.
I can't say enough good things about Sophie. The entire buying process was handled extremely professionally. She had just the right amount of aggressiveness and grace to get the purchase done with ease. She was very quick at responding to all communications and getting to the bottom of difficult or stubborn situations. I think Sophie has grit, charm and a lot of integrity as an agent. I would definitely recommend her and the team at Snyder Sutton.
Sophie Zeiler helped me find a home to rent in Topanga, and working with her was easily the best experience I've ever had with a real estate agent. She was not even my agent when she reached out to me about a rental home that was similar in style and price to one I had previously expressed interest in. It turned out to be the perfect rental in every way. She was extremely helpful and responsive through the application process, keeping me and my husband updated daily while we were out of the country. I can't recommend Sophie Zeiler highly enough! She actually changed our lives by reaching out to us. We couldn't be happier to be in Topanga.
I would definitley use Sophie again! She was really helpful and found exactly the place that I was looking for. She was very professional and was really responsive throughout the entire process. Thanks again!
I met Sophie at an open house in my neighborhood and was really impressed. Most agents are good at the nuts and bolts of providing information on properties, but it's rare that i meet an agent who doesn't leave me feeling like she/he is trying to sell me something. I know that's their job, but i respond well to sincerity, and Sophie really has that quality. Buying a house is stressful, and feeling like your agent has your back is important in getting through an escrow....i haven't gotten to that point with Sophie, yet, but i'm looking forward to having her handle my transaction in the near future!
Sophie is a one of a kind agent - She is lovely, professional and responsive (day or night). I'd go through the process with her all over again because she is the best of the best.

I was a first time home buyer and Sophie walked me through every step. It was such a relief to find a gem like this realtor, many others had made me feel so pressured and sometimes a bit stupid. Not Sophie, she entertained any question or fear that I had, and resolved them methodically without complaint :)Not only that, she found me the house of my dreams, after II had been searching for months on end...go with Sophie and you will be a very happy home owner like me
Sophie is knowledgeable, kind, hard working, and trustworthy - everything I could ever want in a realtor. She is always on time, thorough with all her communication and she's also just an overall really nice person to be around - makes the process of buying (or selling) a home so much easier. Thanks Sophie for all your hard work!
Sophie is more than an amazing realtor - she is an amazing person. My fiancA(C) and I are so used to having to be so skeptical of what people say and whether or not you can trust them, in our home search, and with Sophie, we realized we could trust every word and every bit of advice she gave us. It was incredibly refreshing, and we really miss having a reason to call her every 5 minutes! We feel very lucky to have worked with Sophie, and to have become friends. If you're looking for someone to help you find a home in Topanga, Sophie knows the area and the community inside and out. She is a very special, smart, and kind person who will understand and stick by you through your process as you navigate all of the myriad considerations and nuances a home buyer must process quickly and strategically. We love you Sophie! Thank you for being a superior realtor and human being.
We had to relocate from the East Coast in a hurry and had about 4 days to find a house and sign a lease. I had never been to SoCal before and had NO idea what it was like. I was so stressed I got the flu. When we started working with Sophie it represented a positive turn for our whole trip. She understood our needs, was knowledgable about the area and the market, and even helped us print a million documents for a last-minute application. We simply would not have found this house without her. And even if we had, we might not have gotten it. Then when we arrived she sent us a lovely note with suggestions for the neighborhood. I highly recommend her. Months later we are still very happy here. Thank you, Sophie!
Sophie Zeiler was TERRIFIC. Best agent I've ever dealt with. Really professional. Really quick to get back to me. And a genuinely nice person. She dealt with any problems that came up during Escrow very efficiently, and always had our best interests at heart. I would recommend her to anyone.
